Posted: Tue Mar 16, 2010 12:37 pm Post subject: Single GT 500 Takeoff Muffler Installed. |
|
|
To answer any questions about fitment, the 2010 mufflers are an exact fit on the 05-09 models. I took off the factory muffler and drove the car around with no muffler at all....MAN DID IT SOUND SICK!!!!!! . I wish I could ride around like that for a few days! I have completed the install of the GT 500 muffler with 4'' polished tip and it sounds great! Very happy for now...that is until I get the duals installed.  _________________ 13.03@104.9 mph.

I have the other muffler in the bedroom (storage haha). Stacey, did the factory gt width on the h pipe work with yours or did you have to bend it? A friend of the guy i bought this from had a bbk offroad x pipe for sale also. _________________ 13.03@104.9 mph. ARH LT's, MAC O/R Prochamber, FRPP 4.10's Moroso Spiral Flows, GT500 STB. |

I definately want to put my cats on the xpipe, i read somewhere that the gt 500's don't sound very good on the sixxers without them. But if I left them off, it would be ok for a while...I'm a NC State Safety Inspector and am in a safety only county! _________________ 13.03@104.9 mph.

One more question stacey, did the h pipe that you guys installed start at the header 'collectors'? Or was it just the center section? Tryin to get a good solid visual before I decide to get the bbk Xpipe from the guy. _________________ 13.03@104.9 mph. ARH LT's, MAC O/R Prochamber, FRPP 4.10's Moroso Spiral Flows, GT500 STB. |

Don't you lie Josh, sixxers sound horrible with no mufflers. LoL. Just busting your balls man. (But seriously, they don't sound good without mufflers.)
Feel free to post up a video of the new sound. _________________

It actually sounded pretty damn good without a muffler Matt! As for posting a video, the fiance can't find her cable to transfer the video to the computer. _________________ 13.03@104.9 mph. ARH LT's, MAC O/R Prochamber, FRPP 4.10's Moroso Spiral Flows, GT500 STB. |
